Who can forget Sydney Pollack's awesome direction and acting in Tootsie in the year 1982.~ ** ~
Sydney Pollack Dies of Cancer at 73
2008-05-27 13:37:00 Director, producer, and actor Sydney Pollack passed away yesterday at his home in Los Angeles at age 73.His long career began in the late 1950s as an actor and acting teacher of such notable thespians as Robert Duvall, Rip Torn, and Brenda Vaccaro. He quickly took a spot behind the camera for acclaimed films such as "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?," "Jeremiah Johnson," "Three Days of the Condor," "Tootsie," and his only Oscar-winner "Out of Africa."His films were notable almost equally for their political content, their commercial viability, and their overall artistic quality. He eventually hit a slump of sorts with "Sabrina" and "Random Hearts," though "The Interpreter" and his final film (and only documentary) "Sketches of Frank Gehry" were more favorably received.During that aforementioned slump in the 90s and early 00s, he focused more of his time and energy on acting and producing. He appeared in such films as "Changing Lanes," Stanley Kubrick's "Eyes Wide Shut," "Michael Cla...

The Bell Tolls For Thee
2008-05-27 09:53:00 He was only 73. Esteemed prolific film director Sydney Pollack exits the planet. Cancer. Pollack directed one of my favorites: "Three Days Of The Condor" w/Robert Redford. Won an Oscar for "Out of Africa" (Redford starred). Played out-of-work actor Dustin Hoffman's exasperated agent in "Tootsie" (1982). NYT Wash Post NYP NYDN Photos and film retrospective from Elsa MoraWatch this memorable scene where Hoffman confronts Pollack in "Tootsie."Mr. Pollack directed the brilliant "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?" Redford's "The Way We Were". The Cruise/Kidman vehicle "Eyes Wide Shut". 1981's "Absence Of Malice". "The Swimmer" starring Burt Lancaster - brilliant albeit strange movie where he's not credited. My Sydney Pollack memory bubble is stuck in "Tootsie" (above photo). The Indiana-born Pollack headed for NY to make his fame and fortune as an actor. He landed his first role - "For Whom The Bell Tolls" - on TV's "Playhouse 90":.

Sydney Pollack Passes Of Cancer at 73; Actor / Director One Of My Favorites
2008-05-27 07:43:00 I just saw the fourth Indiana Jones movie and in it is a line I will not forget. "We've reached that point where life takes things away from us, where life gave to us." I think Jim Brodbent said it, but it was unforgettably true. One of those "things" is the person Sydney Pollack, who was one of my favorite actor / directors, But I remember Pollack most as an actor, and my first introduction to him was in the Woody Allen movie "Husbands and Wives" where he played a producer who was having marriage problems such that he separated and took up an unhappy, brief, and turbulent relationship with his personal trainer. What got me about Sydney's performance was the power of his personality shining through. A kind of approach that I associated with New York City's style and that shown through all of his movies from Husbands to "Eyes Wide Shut." I did not know this was the same person who directed "Out Of Africa" nor did I know that I would have the pleasure of watching movies ...

2008-05-27 06:52:00 As a videographer who is always trying to improve my art, it saddened me today to learn about the passing away of Academy Award Winning filmmaker Sydney Pollack. His movies were an inspiration to me and he was one of the most well respected directors and producers in Hollywood history.Among the movies he has directed are They Shoot Horses, Don't They?, The Way We Were, Tootsie, Out of Africa, and The Firm.His list of producer credits is equally impressive with movies like The Fabulous Baker Boys, Searching for Bobby Fischer, Michael Clayton, and most recently, Recount, the made for HBO movie that recalls the Florida State recount of the 2000 election for the President of the United States.The world has lost a great talent.Sydney PollackPhiladelphia Wedding Video

Michael Clayton and the Surprise Beginning
2007-10-15 04:59:00 Tina and I saw Michael Clayton last night - we liked it a lot.Although the movie was not without its flaws, I think it hit at least one original mark - doing something better than I recall ever seeing in any other movie.The movie starts off with a quite involved, detailed sequence. Michael Clayton - played to perfection by George Clooney - gets a call to see a client of his firm, who had left the scene of a hit-and-run in Westchester. We learn something of this client, his wife, and about Clayton, who drives off. The dawn is breaking, Clayton stops at the sight of some horses on the top of a hill. Clayton gets out of his car, walks up the hill to commune with the horses, and-That's when the movie really begins. Now we have of course seen faux beginnings in James Bond and all kinds of movie. But I don't believe I've ever seen one as effective as this one. Kudos to writer, director, producer Tony Gilroy.The rest of the movie was good. Some nice surprises, a few slow spots ...
